In the past there have been frequent times where fans complained about accessing coverage of game. I find it interesting that right now I'm watching Canada game on tv, Japan game and women's game at Perth on livestream.

russian mens team was just a mess. im not a fan of forcing players into lineups. and im not sure why they have this continued faith in stukalskiy. he's never done anything of note and they put him into a russian line up that got 4th at euros.

im just trying to understand why the russian mens program and swiss mens programs are so far behind the women. they are doing the same things, working with the same people.

To be fair Stukalskiy was on the team that finished 4th at Euro's. The difference is that Timofeev was skipping and throwing 4th stones with Stukalskiy throwing 3rd stones.

I believe they made the switch during the Russian playdown for World's after the team was down 2 games to 1 in the best of 7. They then won 3 straight to qualify.

we will see them later in the week playing for playoff position, and perhaps a rematch game against Gushue the afternoon draw featuring Scotland's David Murdoch vs Canada is not to be missed, nothing is going to be a 'cakewalk" for Gushue
